Popis: A method is suggested for determining kinetic parameters of arbitrary complex heterogeneous catalytic reactions under conditions such that the reaction rate is significantly affected by heat and mass transfer to and in the catalyst pellets. Linear relationships are established between the concentrations of the key and dependent reactants (diffusion stoichiometry relationships) and between temperature and the concentrations of the key components. A solution procedure is suggested for the problems involved in the determination of kinetic parameters for reactions proceeding under diffusion limitations. The procedure is illustrated by analysis of data earlier reported for steam methane reforming over a nickel catalyst.
